PATRICK Watches and Jewelry Fine Watch Repairing. WINDER, GA. I * /A* 1 TURKISH VIRGINIA BURLEY ■ ffi WHY NEGROES ARE LEAVING BARROW Dear Render: I’ve been telling you that the night riders were not the prime move that’s taking darkies from Barrow county, and now I have the proof. C’-hance came my way. A eertain person picked up in my house a letter dropped there by a col oerd person. Its contents were read through curiosity. I was notified and went in search of said letter but not being able to get it, I am reproducing it as near as memory will permit. North Fork, Va. (Recent date) Dear Father and Mother: I was glad to know you are all well. I am too—been fishing, caught 1 weigh ing 100 pounds. * * * Out here a negro woman can knock a white woman oil' the side walk and there is nothing to it. Negro women marry white men and negro men marry white women. 1 know a negro man a® black as a crow who lots a white woman for a wife. Our deputy sheriff is a negro and De tective Jo is a negro: said lie wished he had come here 7 years ago. * * * (Signed) You see when our colored people are stuffed with such stories and made to see prosperity or easy money and plen ty while here the boll weevil hurts who blames him for going. Then the desire for honor and privi lege of a closer association with the white call to his conscience and off lie goes. The incarnate devil in some would cause them to cross seas, climb mountains, wade through firy furnaces to satisfy their desire. Just how many letters of this brand has Uncle Sam brought to Winder who knows? Some of you would know the darky; he has lived here and gone, I know not when, to North Fork, Loudoun coun ty, Virginia; his father and mother live here. I don’t mind telling you their names if any wish to know. The thing for you to do is to say less about our own people and abuse the ones who are doing the dirty work; lay some of the blame on Uncle Sam for spreading such propaganda through liis mail sacks. If this is not slanderous and abusive what it it? It is also seduc tive , it may lead innocent parties into trouble away from home and friends to die and rot among enemies. C. M. THOMPSON. CARD OF THANKS To our friends who so kindly came to our assistance during our recent ill ness when the entire family was sick. And also a few days when our little daughter, Ruth, had pneumonia. We thank you most, sincerely, especially Dr. Almond and the nurses for the kind way they administered to us. May God’s richest blessings be with you. J. J. MADDOX and FAMILY. January 8, 1923.
